Workshops
Kat is formulates workshops based on your goals of wanting to incorporate trauma-informed practice, radical self-care & compassion fatigue, and the interweaving of acupuncture and Chinese medicine principles, yoga, and social justice. These workshops will be day-long sessions and are intended for those who are acupuncturists, bodyworkers, yoga teachers, community health workers, grassroots activists, community leaders, and those who work with marginalized communities. The goals of these workshops are to increase our awareness of the realities of communities by:
Having a firm understanding of cultural humility. We must never step into a community with the intention of "helping," "fixing," or "correcting any deficit." Instead, we must meet communities where they are, listen for their direction, consistently take personal inventory of our privileges, and celebrate community experiences and assets.
Understand the science and physiological effects of trauma as it transcends generations.
Make our own healing a priority as we share the effects of mindfulness, yoga, and meditation. Radical self-care is vital. Our own healing goes hand-in-hand with the healing of whole communities who have experienced trauma and injustice.
Kat can also work with you to customize workshops depending on the population and setting.
Retreats
I am available for retreats for both yoga and acupuncture (acupuncture services are provided only in the state of California at this time). I offer a variety of different yoga modalities from a vinyasa flow to restorative. With acupuncture, I can provide both community style, as well as, individual. I can work with you on what your retreat needs and how I can show up in the best way for your organization.
